God of War: Ascension

About the Game

Our Verdict

Ascension's online multiplayer is a saving grace for the game and it's far from the tacked-on feature it easily could've been. It also brings something fresh to an online competitive scene drowning in "me-too" first-person shooters. It's just a shame that it came at the cost of the single player and left Kratos as the odd-man-out in his own game. Multiplayer aside, God of War: Ascension feels like the victory lap for the series - far from an awful outing, but an otherwise unnecessary entry into the series.
